    SO, my diet has been going EXCELLENT!!! I have not had a beer in a couple of weeks, but the warm weather has me really wanting a patio drink!!! Soooooooooo, should I have a couple or curb that craving?!?! Will it kill my diet??? My plan says to LIMIT or AVOID alcohol and I have completely avoided it for two weeks! So, help me out here! Tell me what to do!


    I enjoy a beer from time to time but it is either on a complete treat day...like my sister in law's wedding or it is figured into my goals for the day...if I know 2 beers fits but three doesn't then I only have two..and have a water in between...

    I can years without alcohol though and when I do drink it is for the enjoyment of the beverage, not to get buzzed etc.

    thinkl aBOUT YOUR LIVER AND DIET

    Lol

    I drink beer when it fits in my day. Or like a few weeks ago when I went to a dance, danced my hiney off and had like 5. The whole point is to be healthy and anything in moderation will be ok :)

    Don't do it!!

    If you're doing so well, why ruin it! Think of a bottle of beer as a bottle full to the brim of useless, nasty, fat enticing calories :) xx


    *I'm a big drinker, 7 days sober, feel like a new person so far but getting so many cravings it's unreal. But when I get a craving, I just think something along the lines of what I've just written!

    A bad beer is better than no beer at all.

    No it's not.

    Why not?

    drinking an awful beer for the sake of having a beer is empty calories. If I'm gonna drink a beer, it's gonna be a damn big delicious craft brew... and I'm not going to have to grimace while I drink garbage. If I can't have a real beer, I'm gonna have water until I can get a real beer.

    I will be having some Molsons 67 in a little while so I am biased........but I say yes of course. I get a kick out of all the beer snobs telling others what is good beer and what is not. Just like food what you like is subjective.

    Beer reviewers in general are among the most pretentious, ridiculous reads you can find. Aside from a very small percentage of people in the world , there is no such thing as a "beer connoisseur, but there are sure plenty of people who consider themselves such. In reality, the following is all the average beer drinker needs to know: (myself not included, as I consider myself quite the connoisseur.. :)

    Excellent pouring beer, managed to pour it from the bottle into my mouth without it foaming out onto my shirt like a 6 year old with a super soaker. This beer is smooth, not causing my mouth to pucker more than a cat's *kitten* in a 10 degree room. Beer's alcoholic content is just about right, not forcing me to take 20 trips to the pisser. The beer is still passable even after being forgotten on the table for a half hour and allowed to go warm and flat, though less refreshing, it didn't make the beer smell like an incontinent ferret with the runs.

    The beer is priced in such a way that I don't feel like I'm showing up to the party carrying the $9.99 suitcase of Old Milwaukee, yet they're not so expensive that I feel the need to hover over the case all evening with a switchblade and sawed off, threating the lives and cranial sexual sanctitude of anyone who decides to steal one from me.

    Creamy heads, chocolate rivulets, and musty aromas are not things a man should ever think about when throwing back beers. Unless, of course, that man takes is of a different sexual orientation than myself.

    Not that there's anything wrong with that.

    You could try Miller 64 (64 calories).


    ewww no, gross.

    A bad beer is better than no beer at all.

    If you are going to drink a real beer, go for a good micro.

    have a beer! And not a gross light beer, or a Coors or Bud or Miller.

    Have a real honest delicious cold beer.

    This!

    Had a delicious pint of hoppy IPA today, at lunch. Fits into my macros, feeling no guilt.

    What is it about beer and sunshine? Someday I expect to read that beer helps the body absorb Vitamin D. :-)

    I'm confused by this. Unless perhaps you're giving an example of light beer? Yeah that must be it.

    I love to sit outside around 5PM and have a glass or two of wine. I am so glad it is summer. I just include this in my daily calories and enjoy!!!!

    To be honest, I've never had much of a taste for beer. Do what feels right for you.
